Success Stories

I am thrilled that I have managed to find my mothers family of whom I knew nothing of as a young girl.
My mother left home when I was eight years old and I was left with my father who was not very nice so I ran away from school, started work whilst still under age. I eventualy found my mother, but we could not stay too close due to her second family. I have always loved her, missed her, but had to except her life had changed.
I was told I could visit her just before she died, when she begged me to find her welsh family though her mother died when she was only twelve years old. It was very hard, as her second family gave me her wrong name. This meant I could not find her birth certificate, Her real name was Kate, but was known to them as Catherine. I was also given the wrong age. With alot of hard work, and help from Genes re united, I at last have resolved it. I have her mothers death certificate and my mothers birth certificate, of which was told she never had one. I now have now also been in touch with members of her mothers side of the family, they have sent me photos of my mother from the fifties and sixties, and of my grand mother and great grandmother. Thank you Genes re united!
